Royalty (Afterdeath)

[Chapter 1] The Beginning

9 years later~

Geno stands in a field, looking out at the trees beyond. The long grass plains swayed against the gentle breeze as the sun slowly descended to sleep. He had stopped working for a minute or two. He worked all day, everyday, because his parents don't have a lot of money. Are they his parents? Honestly, Geno could care less. They were extremely rude and never bothered about him. But sometimes, he thinks that he had other parents, well a parent. When he falls asleep, he sometimes gets this dream of a woman with bright pink hair, and two other skeletons like him sitting at a table, eating breakfast, enjoying laughs and having fun. Geno smiled at the thought of having a wonderful family.

But the images always end up blurry and he never recognise the family.

"EY! STOP SLACK'N OFF AND GET YOUR ASS TO WORK LITTLE BRAT!" Geno heard the voice of his mother. Geno sighed as he turned shakily to the angry woman at the porch.

"I-I'm sorry mother.." Geno apologizes, and turns to the tools he had left on the ground and carries on walking.

After hours of work through the night, he comes back to his house, exhausted. He drags himself up to his room and flops onto his bed.

Suddenly, he heard someone clambering up the stairs. His father comes up the stairs and into his room with a stern look on his face. Geno sits up frantically, not to disappoint him.

"We're running out of money to support the four of us." His father says, "So we'll need you to go to the town and sell some crops there."

Geno didn't like the town. The town was where people who earned a bit more money than they do. People there always gave him a dirty look, or children teased him. The streets were filled with disgusting people, treacherous. Geno shivered at the thought. But Geno couldn't argue. His father would punish him harshly. Geno nods, as he grabs his sacred scarf and pendant. He's never taken them off since forever. They were special and gave him hope. He follows his father to a cart and horse.

"Take this load to the town, and be back by tomorrow at five for supper. Or you won't get any dinner." Father said angrily as he pushed Geno into the cart.

"Yes father.." Geno mutters, and hops onto the cart and takes the reins of the horse. He whips them and off to the town Geno went, passing the small cottage.

"This is going to be a long journey,"

"Your majesty, your kingdom is in terrible danger," an adviser spoke to the Queen sitting on the throne.

"How so?" She replied hastily, knowing the issue.

"The loss of your eldest son is going to cause havoc in the kingdom. Without a heir, the kingdom will collapse!" He replied.

"Why can't Error be my next heir?" She replied.

"Your majesty, please. He is not old enough to rule the kingdom. Your eldest is the right age." He replied quickly.

The Queen sighed before replying, "I'll find a way to help this kingdom. Not matter what. You are dismissed."

The adviser bowed before exiting the grand door at the end of the throne room. The Queen sighed unhappily. She needed her son back. She knew he survived because there were no remains of his dust or the pendant. She thought hard on how she was going to deal with the situation.

Out of the door poked another boy. He had black bones with a blue tears running down his cheek. He had glitches and 'ERROR' signs floating around him.
